Bayou Billionaires

[Cat]

Oh.
My.
God...



It's commercial now, but I have sat there with my hand covering my jaw dropped mouth most of the time so far.

 

[Russo]

I don't see why they call the show that, we only have one true billionaire on the bayou and I'm sure he wouldnt be on a tv show.... Cajun Shrimpers, however is an exact description of every small time shrimper I met..

 

[cajunranger]

Right after that show was Redneck Vacation. Another family from Shreveport going to the Hamptons.

I usually enjoy these shows...but that one was hard to stomach. They should of called the show "Brokeback Billionares".

You forgot "Cajun Pawn Stars". It comes on the history channel I think. It's about Silver Dollar Pawn in Alexandria. Check it out, it's actually pretty good.

Two Words - Tax Breaks. For the movie industry

 

[3fifty7]

I guess the film industry tax credit is working.

Yeah, after I posted I remembered it, but wasn't really motivated to go back & add it!
And I even watch that one sometimes.

Please write a letter to Mr. Obama explaining this.

 

[melisa]

I had it on to watch it but after seeing the first 2 mins I turned the channel!

 

[Tulse Luper]

Caged is a real gem.

 

[Grandpa23]

2 minutes? Wow! I didn't watch that much of it before clicking the remote.

 

[LongGoneDays]

This show made the local news website this weekend, first I'd heard about it. When will it end?
I've stopped watching a few reality shows recently and have found replacements for them with
well written shows, I thought those were long gone but apparently not.

 

[toddrod]

I might regret saying this, or maybe not, but I actually liked Redneck Vacation. I can kind of relate to those folks

 

[jmanrogers]

Cajun Pawn Stars is 100% SCRIPTED, FAKE and a absolute EMBARRASSMENT to Alexandria. But you have to consider the source also. So far, everything that has come into his "Pawn Shop", he owns or someone else already owns it. The Colt Dragoon - owned by Mr. Cohn and for sale in his store in New Orleans. The Benelli shotgun - owned by Gary himself, not the old man. The $5000 & $10000 bills, General Lee, Donkeys, show shine stand - all owned by Jimmy Duramus, and by the way - never heard anyone call him "Big Daddy", but I've heard a lot of people call him a$$hole. His store should be called a museum, not a Pawn Shop - half the stuff he has isn't even for sale, unless your looking for a MLK DVD, then he has plenty of those.

It's evident that the tv industry is desperate and will do anything to entertain people. REAL tv and actual educational shows are gone. This is why the younger generation is stupid, lazy and not willing to get out and earn a living. I better stop ranting, my blood pressure is getting up there. Lol

 

[JNieman]

Who watches reality tv for reality?

Up Next on "WATCHING PAINT DRY!!"...

Umm, no.

A bunch of women showing up at this high end grocery counter asking for nutria rat are embarrassing themselves. "What is that?" when she's pointing to pesto. Hell, pesto is every where.

ROFLMAO! When he said he has an exotic spanish rat, it shut them down fast. Dumbass twits. They deserve to look like that on national television. Just so the whole world knows how bloody stupid they are. Even if it's for television, agreeing to paint themselves that way...
